Boston, 12 May 2026 — Perk , the AI-native travel and spend management platform, today announces an industry-first partnership with CLEAR, giving business travelers preferred pricing on CLEAR+, CLEAR Concierge, and TSA PreCheck®. CLEAR is the secure identity company, making experiences safer and easier—physically and digitally.The new partnership will give Perk customers preferred pricing on CLEAR+, CLEAR Concierge, and TSA PreCheck® for a seamless travel day from home to gate.

Members can pair CLEAR+ with TSA PreCheck® for a faster way to their gate and easier security screening without needing to remove shoes, laptops, 3-1-1 liquids, belts, or light jackets. CLEAR Concierge is the company’s premium service, offering travelers a VIP airport experience. Your CLEAR Concierge will meet you at the curb when you arrive, help you with bags and check-in, and bring you straight through security and to your gate or lounge. Perk’s preferred partner offer extends CLEAR+ Membership benefits beyond business travel, so customers can take advantage when traveling for pleasure, too. Perk's 2025 annual travel disruption report revealed 89% of business travelers were affected by travel disruptions last year - the highest number from the past three years. With some US airports experiencing record crowds earlier this year, this partnership will give business travelers the option for a faster route so they can focus on the real work. Perk’s report also unveiled how travel disruption can negatively impact business with 25% of global business travelers believing they missed out on new business due to disruptions they experienced.
Stuart Blake, US VP of Revenue at Perk said, “Travel for work exists for one reason, to get the job done. Every minute spent in an airport queue is a minute not spent on the meeting, the deal, or the customer. Partnering with CLEAR is part of how Perk is systematically removing the friction points that cost companies time and focus. Seamless travel isn't a nice-to-have. It's a competitive advantage and we're proud to be the first travel and spend management platform to offer it.”
“CLEAR creates seamless, secure experiences across the entire travel journey, giving business travelers valuable time back to focus on what matters most to them. We chose Perk as our first T&S partner because they extend our mission of frictionless experiences into how companies plan, book, and manage business travel,” said Juliana Ortego, SVP, Head of New Ventures & Growth at CLEAR.
This partnership further strengthens Perk’s offering, adding to a growing suite of customer perks - including insurance products, flexible travel options, Perk card cashback, and rebates on travel spend. Together, these added benefits reflect Perk's broader commitment to building a platform where the logistics of business travel get out of the way of the work itself.
